Free journal

Free Options Trading Journal

Start journaling your options trades for free. Use the sample book or log trades by hand, then connect Tradier when you want your trades pulled in automatically.

The sample book and a hand-kept book do not need a Tradier connection.

What the free version includes

Sample is a book CoveredLoop maintains. Manual is a book you type or import, within 2 manual accounts and 25 trades. Those limits are the ones on pricing.

What paid plans add

Paid plans add a Tradier connection. The plans are Monthly ($29/mo), Annual ($199/yr), Lifetime ($499 once). Read the details on pricing.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. The sample book does not need a paid plan. A manual book you type or import stays within 2 manual accounts and 25 trades. What each includes is on the pricing page.

What's the difference between free and paid?

Free is the sample book and a manual book (2 manual accounts and 25 trades). Paid plans add a Tradier connection. Compare them on the pricing page.

Do I need a Tradier account?

No. Start with the sample book or log trades by hand. You can connect Tradier later if you want those trades in the journal.

Can I upgrade later and keep my journal?

Yes. Moving to a paid plan adds a Tradier connection and keeps the journal you already started. See pricing.
